Ultimate Tweaker doesn't recognize my car

Postby Toty » Thu May 03, 2012 4:17 am

Hi, I've made a car for MM2 and I want to change it's tuning, however, when I try to open it in MM2UT, nothing happens.
Here is an image:

The car works fine in game, so I don't know what is the problem.
Please help me.

I too experienced the same problem. Maybe this is a compression defect. I once decompressed (made .ar into .zip) a default car, extracted it and then again compressed it using WinRar and Ultimate tweaker looked exactly as in above image. It made me go into the .vehicarsim for editing tuning..

Try making the archive with something else eg. the Windows built-in ZIP maker (then rename to .ar)?

There can be multiple things wrong. Did you save it as rar or zip before renaming as ar?

This curious problem with the opening of the .ar files with MM2 Ultimate Tweaker and MM2 Vehicle Viewer happens when it's made using WinZip program. Make it using WinRar or 7-Zip programs, selecting the ZIP compression method of course, to get the .ar file workable with those MM2 tools.

I made the original file with WinRAR (I saved it as a ZIP file and then changed the extension to AR), but, as you can see, that didn't work, so then I followed whoami's suggestion and now it works!
(I still don't know what was the problem with WinRAR).

Thank you all.
